Here is a patch I made a while ago.
------


I made a patch for 2.0.42 to add commands to add and delete
module configurations. From FvwmTalk, FvwmConsole or equivallent,

       DestroyModuleConfig <config>

will search lines starting with '*<config>' as a first word, delete
them. You can use Fvwm style wildcards. For example,

       DestroyModuleConfig FvwmWinListFont

will delete lines start with 'FvwmWinListFont' as a whole word.

       DestroyModuleConfig FvwmButtons*

will delete all lines starting '*FvwmButtons'.

To add new config lines, just like .fvwm2rc file,

       *FvwmButtonsRows 12

with no leading spaces.

You can easily re-customize modules with these commands without restarting
fvwm (Even easier with FvwmConsole).


Here is the patch.
